TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a semiconductor light emitting device package.

BACKGROUND

A light emitting device, for example, a light emitting diode, is a semiconductor device which converts electrical energy into light, and is receiving attention as a next-generation light source to replace conventional fluorescent lamps and incandescent lamps.

The light emitting diode generates light using a semiconductor device, thus causing very low power consumption as compared with an incandescent lamp generating light by heating tungsten or a fluorescent lamp generating light by irradiating ultraviolet light generated through high intensity discharge upon phosphors.

Further, the light emitting diode generates light using a potential gap of the semiconductor device, thus having a long lifespan and fast response time and being environmentally friendly as compared with conventional light sources.

Accordingly, considerable research efforts have focused upon developing light emitting diodes that can replace conventional light sources and light emitting diodes are increasingly used as light sources of lighting apparatuses, such as various lamps used indoors and outdoors, liquid crystal display devices, electric display boards, streetlights and so on.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description of the embodiments, it will be understood that, when an element such as a layer (film), region, pattern, or structure is referred to as being “on” or “under” another element, it can be “directly” on or under another element or can be “indirectly” formed such that an intervening element may also be present. Also, terms such as “on” or “under” should be understood on the basis of the drawings.

In the drawings, dimensions of layers are exaggerated, omitted or schematically illustrated for clarity and description convenience. In addition, dimensions of constituent elements do not entirely reflect actual dimensions thereof. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. Hereinafter, a semiconductor light emitting device package according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a semiconductor light emitting device package 100 in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a bottom view of the semiconductor light emitting device package shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a first side view of the semiconductor light emitting device package shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 4 is a second side view of the semiconductor light emitting device package shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 5 is a third side view of the semiconductor light emitting device package shown in FIG. 1. FIG. 6 is a fourth side view of the semiconductor light emitting device package shown in FIG. 1.

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 6, the semiconductor light emitting device package 100 includes a body 110, a first reflective cup 122, a second reflective cup 124, a first connection pad 126, a second connection pad 128, a first semiconductor light emitting device 132, a second semiconductor light emitting device 134, a zener diode 150, and wires 151 to 159.

The body 110 may be made of at least one selected from among a resin such as polyphthalamide (PPA), silicon (Si), a metal, photo-sensitive glass (PSG), sapphire (Al₂O₃), and a printed circuit board (PCB).

The body 110 may be made of a conductor. If the body 110 is made of a conductive material, an insulating film (not shown) may be formed on the surface of the body 110 so as to prevent electrical shorting of the body 110 with the first reflective cup 122, second reflective cup 124, first connection pad 126, or second connection pad 128.

An upper portion 106 of the body 110, as seen from the top, may have various shapes, such as a triangle, a rectangle, a polygon and a circle, according to purposes and designs of the semiconductor light emitting device package 100.

For example, the semiconductor light emitting device package 100, as shown in FIG. 1, may be used in an edge-type backlight unit (BLU). If the semiconductor light emitting device package 100 is applied to a portable flashlight or a home lighting apparatus, the body 110 may be modified so as to have a size and a shape easily allowing easy installation in the portable flashlight or the home lighting apparatus.

The body 110 includes a top surface 103 and reflective sidewalls 102. The reflective sidewalls 102 are formed to extend upward from the top surface 103. The body 110 has a cavity 105 (hereinafter, referred to as a “body cavity”), which is upwardly opened and includes side surfaces 102 and a bottom 103. The side surfaces 102 of the cavity 105 can correspond to the reflective sidewalls of the body 110, and the bottom 103 of the cavity 105 can correspond to the top surfaces of the body 110. The body cavity 105 may have a cup shape or a concave container shape. The side surfaces 102 of the body cavity 105 may be perpendicular or tilted with respect to the bottom 103.

The shape of the body cavity 105, as seen from the top, may be a circle, an oval, or a polygon (for example, a rectangle). The corners of the body cavity 105 may be curved. As shown in FIG. 7, the shape of the body cavity 105, as seen from the top, may be approximately octagonal, and the side surfaces 102 of the body cavity 105 may include eight facets including first facets and second facets. The first facets may have a smaller area than the second facets. Here, the first facets may correspond to the side surfaces 102 of the body cavity 105 facing the respective corners of the body 110, and the second facets may correspond to the side surfaces 102 of the body cavity 105 each arranged between adjacent ones of the first facets.

The facing ones of the first facets 301 to 304 and second facets 311 to 314 may have the same shape and area. Some of the facing facets may have a curved structure. In accordance with another embodiment, the side surfaces 102 of the body cavity 105 may include facets, the number of which is less or more than 8. In this case, some of the facing facets may have a curved structure.

The first reflective cup 122 and the second reflective cup 124 may be disposed in the body 110 under the top of the body 110 while being spaced apart from each other. For example, the first and second reflective cup 122 and 124 may be disposed in the body 110 under the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 such that the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 are spaced apart from each other. The first reflective cup 122 may have a structure depressed from the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 while being upwardly opened.

The first reflective cup 122 may have a cup structure including a first bottom 122-1, a first top surface 122-3, and first side surfaces 122-2 disposed between the first bottom 122-1 and the first top surface 122-3. The second reflective cup 124 may have a cup structure including a second bottom 124-1, a second top surface 124-3, and second side surfaces 124-2 disposed between the second bottom 124-1 and the second top surface 124-3.

The bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 may have a first cavity 162, which is upwardly opened and includes side surfaces and a bottom. The first reflective cup 122 may define the first cavity 162.

The second reflective cup 124 may have an upwardly-opened structure depressed from the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 while being spaced apart from the first cavity 162. For example, the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 may have a second cavity 164, which is upwardly opened and includes side surfaces and a bottom. The second reflective cup 124 may define the second cavity 164 while being spaced apart from the first cavity 162.

A portion 103-1 of the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 may be disposed between the first reflective cup 122 and the second reflective cup 124. By the portion 103-1 of the bottom 103, the first reflective cup 122 and the second reflective cup 124 may be spaced apart from each other and isolated from each other.

The first cavity 162 and the second cavity 164, as seen from the top, may have a cup shape, a concave container shape, or the like. The side surfaces of the first and second cavities 162 and 164 may be perpendicular or tilted with respect to the associated bottoms of the first and second cavities 162 and 164.

At least a portion of each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 may extend through the body 110 and be exposed to the outside of the body 110. Since at least a portion of each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 is exposed to the outside of the body 110, it may be possible to enhance the efficiency of emitting, to the outside of the body 110, heat generated by the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134.

FIG. 17 illustrates the first reflective cup 122, second reflective cup 124, first connection pad 126, and second connection pad 128 shown in FIG. 1.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 17, the first reflective cup 122 has an end 142 extending through a first side wall 210 of the body 110 to be exposed to the outside of the body 110. Hereinafter, the end 142 of the first reflective cup 122 will be referred to as a “first lead frame”.

The first lead frame 142 is connected to the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122. The first lead frame 142 includes a first bent portion 512 and a first horizontal portion 514. The first bent portion 512 may be bent from the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 toward a back 107 of the body 110. The angle formed between the first bent portion 512 and the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 may be an acute angle.

The first bent portion 512 may have at least one first hole 501. A portion of the body 110 may fill the first hole 501. The first horizontal portion 514 may be connected to the first bent portion 512. The first horizontal portion 514 may extend in parallel with the bottom of the first reflective cup 122. A part of the first horizontal portion 514 may be exposed from the first side wall 210 and the back 107 of the body 110.

The second reflective cup 124 has an end 144 extending through a second side wall 220 of the body 110 to be exposed to the outside of the body 110. Hereinafter, the end 144 of the second reflective cup 124 will be referred to as a “second lead frame”.

The second lead frame 144 is connected to the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124. The second lead frame 144 includes a second bent portion 522 and a second horizontal portion 524. The second bent portion 522 may be bent from the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124 toward the back 107 of the body 110. The angle formed between the second bent portion 522 and the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124 may be an acute angle.

The second bent portion 522 may have at least one second hole 503. A portion of the body 110 may fill the second hole 503. The second horizontal portion 524 may be connected to the second bent portion 522. The second horizontal portion 524 may extend in parallel with the bottom of the second reflective cup 124. A part of the second horizontal portion 524 may be exposed from the second side wall 220 and bottom surface 107 of the body 110.

Referring to FIG. 2, the first reflective cup 122 may extend through the body 110 such that a bottom surface 202 of the first reflective cup 122 is exposed from the bottom surface 107 of the body 110. The end 142 of the first reflective cup 122 may also extend through the first side wall 210 of the body 110 such that the end 142 is protruded from the first side wall 210 to be exposed to the outside of the body 110.

The second reflective cup 124 may extend through the body 110 such that a bottom surface 204 of the second reflective cup 124 is exposed from the back 107 of the body 110. The end 144 of the second reflective cup 124 may also extend through the second side wall 220 of the body 110 such that the end 144 is protruded from the second side wall 220 to be exposed to the outside of the body 110. The exposed end 142 of the first reflective cup 122 and the exposed end 144 of the second reflective cup 124 may have various shapes such as a rectangular shape, a square shape, and a U-shape.

Since the ends 142 and 144 and bottom surfaces 202 and 204 of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 are exposed to the outside of the body 110, it may be possible to enhance the efficiency of emitting, to the outside of the body 110, heat generated from the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134.

The first connection pad 126 is disposed in the body 110 under the top of the body 110 while being spaced apart from the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124. The second connection pad 128 is disposed in the body 110 under the top of the body 110 while being spaced apart from the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 and the first connection pad 126. For example, the first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may be disposed under the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 while being spaced apart from each other. The bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 may be exposed between the first connection pad 126 and the first reflective cup 122, between the first connection pad 126 and the second reflective cup 124, and between the first connection pad 126 and the second connection pad 128.

The first connection pad 126 is disposed adjacent to one side surface 120 included in one of the side surface pairs of the body cavity 105, each of which includes two facing side surfaces 120. The second connection pad 128 is disposed adjacent to the other side surface 120 included in the side surface pair of the body cavity 105, which includes the side surface 120 disposed adjacent to the first connection pad 126.

The first connection pad 126 may be disposed adjacent to one of two facing first facets 311 and 313 or two facing first facets 312 and 314, and the second connection pad 128 may be disposed adjacent to the other of two facing first facets 311 and 313 or two facing first facets 312 and 314. For example, the center of the first connection pad 126 may be aligned with the center of one of the associated facing first facets 311, whereas the center of the second connection pad 128 may be aligned with the center of the other of the associated facing first facets 313.

The first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may be symmetrically disposed under the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105. The first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may be aligned with each other while facing each other. For example, the center of the first connection pad 126 may be aligned with the center of the second connection pad 129.

Also, the first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may be arranged to be laterally symmetrical with respect to a first reference line 410. The first reference line 410 may be a line connecting the centers of the facing facets 312 and 314.

The first connection pad 126 may include an upper portion 610 exposed from the bottom of the body cavity 105, and an end 146 extending through a third side wall 230 of the body 110 such that a portion of the end 146 can be exposed. Hereinafter, the end 146 of the first connection pad 126 will be referred to as a “third lead frame”.

The third lead frame 146 is connected to the upper portion 610 of the first connection pad 126. The third lead frame 146 includes a third bent portion 532 and a third horizontal portion 534. The third bent portion 532 may be bent from the upper portion 610 of the first connection pad 126 toward the back 107 of the body 110. The angle formed between the third bent portion 532 and the upper portion 610 of the first connection pad 126 may be an acute angle. The third horizontal portion 534 may be connected to the third bent portion 532. The third horizontal portion 534 may extend in parallel with the upper portion 610 of the first connection pad 126. A part of the third horizontal portion 534 may be exposed from the third side wall 230 and back 107 of the body 110.

The second connection pad 128 may include an upper portion 620 exposed from the bottom of the body cavity 105, and an end 148 extending through a fourth side wall 240 of the body 110 such that a portion of the end 148 is exposed. Hereinafter, the end 148 of the second connection pad 128 will be referred to as a “fourth lead frame”.

The fourth lead frame 148 is connected to the upper portion 620 of the second connection pad 128. The fourth lead frame 148 includes a fourth bent portion 542 and a fourth horizontal portion 544. The fourth bent portion 542 may be bent from the upper portion 620 of the second connection pad 128 toward the back 107 of the body 110. The angle formed between the fourth bent portion 542 and the upper portion 620 of the second connection pad 128 may be an acute angle. The fourth horizontal portion 544 may be connected to the fourth bent portion 542. The fourth horizontal portion 544 may extend in parallel with the upper portion 620 of the second connection pad 128. A part of the fourth horizontal portion 544 may be exposed from the fourth side wall 240 and back 107 of the body 110. The first to fourth bent portions 512, 522, 532, and 542 may be disposed in the body 110 without being exposed to the outside of the body 110.

The upper portion 610 of the first connection pad 126 has a thickness T31 of 200 to 300 μm. The third lead frame 146 has a thickness T32 of 0.2 to 0.3 mm. The upper portion 620 of the second connection pad 128 has a thickness T41 of 200 to 300 μm. The fourth lead frame 148 has a thickness T42 of 0.2 to 0.3 mm.

Each of the first and second connection pads 126 and 128 should have a sufficient area to provide a bonding area for wires. For example, the first connection pad 126 may have a minimum diameter of 0.15 mm or more passing through the center of the first connection pad 126, and the second connection pad 128 may have a minimum diameter of 0.15 mm or more passing through the center of the second connection pad 128.

Since the first and second connection pads 126 and 128 are symmetrically disposed under the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 in the illustrated embodiment, the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 may be disposed in the body 110 in a stable and balanced state. Accordingly, it may be possible to prevent the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 from being twisted when the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 are bonded to the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124, respectively.

A portion of each of the first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may extend through the body 110 to be exposed to the outside of the body 110.

For example, the end 146 of the first connection pad 126 may be exposed from the back 107 of the body 110 while extending through the third side wall 230 of the body 110 to be exposed to the outside of the body 110. The third side wall 230 of the body 110 may be perpendicular to the first and second side walls 210 and 220 of the body 110. Also, the end 148 of the second connection pad 128 may be exposed from the back 107 of the body 110 while extending through the fourth side wall 240 of the body 110 to be exposed to the outside of the body 110. The fourth side wall 240 of the body 110 may be perpendicular to the first and second side walls 210 and 220 of the body 110.

The first reflective cup 122, second reflective cup 124, first connection pad 126, and second connection pad 128 may be made of a conductive material. For example, the first reflective cup 122, second reflective cup 124, first connection pad 126, and second connection pad 128 may be made of a metal such as silver, gold, or copper, or a metal body coated with such a metal.

The first reflective cup 122, second reflective cup 124, first connection pad 126, and second connection pad 128 may be made of a material different from that of the body 110, and may not be integral with the body 110. The first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 may have the same shape and size. The first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may have the same shape and size.

The zener diode 150 is disposed on one of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 so as to improve the withstand voltage of the semiconductor light emitting device package 100. For example, the zener diode 150 is disposed on the top surface 122-3 or 124-3 of one of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the zener diode 150 is mounted on the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

The first semiconductor light emitting device 132 is disposed in the first cavity 162 of the first reflective cup 122. The second semiconductor light emitting device 134 is disposed in the second cavity 164 of the second reflective cup 124. For example, the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be disposed on the bottom 122-1 of the first reflective cup 122, and the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 may be disposed on the bottom 124-1 of the second reflective cup 124.

The first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be spaced apart from the side surfaces 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122, whereas the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 may be spaced apart from the side surfaces 124-2 of the second reflective cup 124.

Each of the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 may have a width of 400 to 1,200 μm, a length of 400 to 1,200 μm, and a thickness of 100 to 200 μm. For example, each of the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 may have a chip size including a width×length of 800 μm×400 μm and a thickness of 100 to 150 μm.

The first semiconductor light emitting device 132, second semiconductor light emitting device 134, and first connection pad 126 are electrically connected by wires 152, 154, 156, and 158. The first wire 154 electrically connects the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and first reflective cup 122. The second wire 154 electrically connects the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and first connection pad 126. The third wire 156 electrically connects the first connection pad 126 and second semiconductor light emitting device 134. The fourth wire 158 electrically connects the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 and second reflective cup 124.

The zener diode 150 mounted on the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124 and the first reflective cup 122 may be electrically connected by a fifth wire 159. For example, one end of the fifth wire 159 may be bonded to the zener diode 150, and the other end of the fifth wire 159 may be bonded to the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122.

Where the zener diode 150 is mounted on the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122, different from the case of FIG. 1, one end of the fifth wire 159 may be bonded to the zener diode 150, and the other end of the fifth wire 159 may be bonded to the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124.

The first connection pad 126 is spaced apart and electrically isolated from the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124. Accordingly, the first connection pad 126 is electrically independent of the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134. In this regard, the first connection pad 126 serially connects the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 in an electrically stable state, so that an enhancement in electrical reliability may be achieved.

Each of the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 is not only a device for emitting light, but also a heat source for emitting heat. The first reflective cup 122 prevents heat emitted from the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 from being radiated to the body 110. The second reflective cup 124 prevents heat emitted from the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 from being radiated to the body 110. That is, the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 thermally isolate the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 from each other. Also, the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 have a light shielding function to prevent light emitted from the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and light emitted from the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 from interfering with each other.

In particular, in the illustrated embodiment, the thermal isolation effects of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 are further enhanced because the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 are formed in the bottom 103 of the body 110, and a portion of the bottom 103 is interposed between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124. Also, it may be possible to further suppress light interference occurring between the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134. Thus, in the illustrated embodiment, it may be possible to thermally and optically isolate the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 from each other.

FIG. 7 is a plan view of the semiconductor light emitting device package 100 shown in FIG. 1. For convenience of description, the wires 151 to 159 shown in FIG. 1 are not shown in FIG. 7.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 7, the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 are spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance D1. A portion 103-1 of the bottom 103 of the body 110 is interposed between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124. As described above, the body 110 may be made of polyphthalamide (PPA).

In order to isolate the heat sources, namely, the light emitting devices 132 and 134, from each other and to effectively prevent light interference from occurring between the light emitting devices 132 and 134, the distance D1 between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 is preferably 100 μm or more.

Also, in order to effectively prevent light interference from occurring between the light emitting devices 132 and 134 while achieving an enhancement in reflection efficiency, the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 is disposed on the bottom 122-1 of the first reflective cup 122 while being spaced apart from the side surfaces 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122 by a predetermined distance. Also, the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 is disposed on the bottom 124-1 of the second reflective cup 124 while being spaced apart from the side surfaces 124-2 of the second reflective cup 124 by a predetermined distance.

The distances from respective facing side surfaces 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122 to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be equal or different. Also, the distances from respective facing side surfaces 124-2 of the second reflective cup 124 to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 may be equal or different. In addition, the distance D21 from each shorter side surface 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122 to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be equal to or different from the distance D22 from each shorter side surface 124-2 of the second reflective cup 124 to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134.

For example, the distance D21 from each shorter side surface 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122 to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be 150 to 250 μm, and the distance D31 from each longer side surface 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122 to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be 400 to 600 μm. Also, the distance D22 from each shorter side surface 124-2 of the second reflective cup 124 to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 may be 150 to 250 μm, and the distance D32 from each longer side surface 124-2 of the second reflective cup 124 to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 may be 400 to 600 μm.

The pitch P between the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 disposed in the first reflective cup 122 and the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 disposed in the second reflective cup 124 may be 2 to 3 mm.

The first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be mounted on a central portion of the bottom of the first reflective cup 122, whereas the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 may be mounted on a central portion of the bottom of the second reflective cup 124. For example, the distance D2 from each shorter side surface 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122 to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be 200 μm, and the distance D31 from each longer side surface 122-2 of the first reflective cup 122 to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 may be 500 μm.

The first connection pad 126 is spaced apart from each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 by a predetermined distance D4. The bottom 103 of the body 110, which is made of PPA, is interposed between the first connection pad 126 and each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124.

For example, the distance between the first reflective cup 122 and the first connection pad 126, namely, the distance D4, may be equal to the distance between the second reflective cup 124 and the first connection pad 126, namely, the distance D4. Also, the distance between the first reflective cup 122 and the second connection pad 128 may be equal to the distance between the second reflective cup 124 and the second connection pad 128.

The distance D4 between the first connection pad 126 and each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 may be equal to the distance D1 between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124. Also, the distance between the second connection pad 128 and each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 may be equal to the distance D1 between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124.

The second connection pad 128 is spaced apart from each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 by a predetermined distance. The bottom 103 of the body 110, which is made of PPA, is interposed between the second connection pad 128 and each of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124.

The distance between the first reflective cup 122 and the first connection pad 126 may be equal to the distance between the first reflective cup 122 and the second connection pad 128. Also, the distance between the second reflective cup 124 and the first connection pad 126 may be equal to the distance between the second reflective cup 124 and the second connection pad 128.

FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line A-A′ of FIG. 7. FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line B-B′ of FIG. 7. In FIGS. 8 and 9, the wires 152 to 159 are not shown.

Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the tilt angle of the side surfaces of the first reflective cup 122, namely, an angle θ1, may be equal to or different from the tilt angle of the side surfaces 102 of the body cavity 105. For example, the angle θ1 formed between each side surface of the first reflective cup 122 and the bottom of the first reflective cup 122 may be 90 to 160°.

The angle formed between each side surface 102 of the body cavity 105 and the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105, namely, an angle θ2, may be 140 to 170°. The upper end of each side surface 102 of the body cavity 105 has a bent edge. The upper end of each side surface 102 may have a bent shape. That is, the body cavity 105 has edges 804 disposed between a top surface 802 of the body 110 and the bottom 103 and stepped from the top surface 802 while extending in parallel to the top surface 802. For example, the upper end of each side surface 102 of the body cavity 105 may have the edge 804, which is stepped from the top surface 802 of the body 110 while extending in parallel to the top surface 802.

In this case, a step K1, which may have a height of 50 μm to 80 μm, may be formed between the top surface 802 of the body cavity 105 and the edge 804. The edge 804 may have a length K2 of 50 μm to 130 μm. At the upper end of each side surface 102 of the body cavity 105, at least one step having the above-described structure may be formed.

As the edge 804 having the above-described step is provided at the upper end of each side surface 102 of the body cavity 105, it may be possible to lengthen the penetration path of gas, and thus to prevent external gas from penetrating into the semiconductor light emitting device package. Thus, the semiconductor light emitting device package 100 may have enhanced sealability.

The first reflective cup 122 may have a thickness T11 of 200 μm to 300 μm. For example, the first reflective cup 122 may have a thickness of 200 μm to 300 μm at portions thereof respectively corresponding to the bottom 122-1, side surfaces 122-2, and top surface 122-3. The second reflective cup 124 may have a thickness T21 of 200 μm to 300 μm. For example, the second reflective cup 124 may have a thickness of 200 μm to 300 μm at portions thereof respectively corresponding to the bottom 124-1, side surfaces 124-2, and top surface 124-3.

The first reflective cup 122 has a thickness 142 of 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm at one end thereof exposed from the first side wall 210 of the body 110. The second reflective cup 124 has a thickness 144 of 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm at one end thereof exposed from the second side wall 220 of the body 110.

The top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 and the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124 may be parallel to the bottom 103 of the body cavity 105. The top surfaces of the first and second connection pads 126 and 128 may be parallel to the top surfaces of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124.

The present invention is not limited to this embodiment. The bottom 103 of the body cavity 105 may be disposed at a higher level than the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122, the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124, and the top surfaces of the first and second connection pads 126 and 128.

The thickness T31 of the first connection pad 126 may be 200 μm to 300 μm. The thickness T32 of the end 146 of the first connection pad 126 exposed to the outside of the body 110 may be 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm. The thickness T41 of the second connection pad 128 may be 200 μm to 300 μm. The thickness T42 of the end 148 of the second connection pad 128 exposed to the outside of the body 110 may be 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm.

As shown in FIG. 8, the semiconductor light emitting device package according to the illustrated embodiment, an encapsulation material 820 may be filled in the body cavity 105 to protect the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 in a sealed state.

The encapsulation material 820 may also be filled in the first reflective cup 122, in which the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 is mounted, and the second reflective cup 124, in which the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 is mounted, as well as the body cavity 105, so as to isolate the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 from the outside.

The encapsulation material 820 may be a silicon material or a resin material. Filling of the encapsulation material 820 may be achieved by filling the body cavity 105 with a silicon material or a resin material, and then curing the silicon or resin material. Of course, filling of the encapsulation material 820 is not limited to the above-described method.

The encapsulation material 820 includes phosphors to change characteristics of light emitted from the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134. Light emitted from the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 is excited by the phosphors and thus renders various colors.

For example, if the light emitting devices 132 and 134 are blue light emitting diodes and the phosphors are yellow phosphors, blue light is excited by the yellow phosphors, thereby rendering white light. If the light emitting devices 132 and 134 emit ultraviolet (UV) light, the encapsulation material 820 includes three-color phosphors, namely, red (R), green (G) and blue (B) phosphors, so as to render white light. Further, a lens (not shown) may be additionally formed on the encapsulation material 820 so as to adjust distribution of light emitted by the semiconductor light emitting device package 100.

In order to prevent light interference between the light emitting devices 132 and 134 and to achieve an enhancement in light reflection efficiency, the depths of the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124 may be determined, taking into consideration the heights of the light emitting devices 132 and 134.

FIG. 22A illustrates a depth H1 of the first reflective cup 122 in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 22A, the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 may be flush with the top surface of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 mounted on the bottom 122-1 of the first reflective cup 122. The depth H1 of the first reflective cup 122 may be equal to the height of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132, namely, a1, (H1=a1). Here, the depth H1 may be the distance between the top surface 122-3 and bottom 122-1 of the first reflective cup 122. The description of the first reflective cup 122 shown in FIG. 22A may be identically applied to the second reflective cup 124.

FIG. 22B illustrates a depth H2 of the first reflective cup in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 22B, the upper surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 may be higher than the upper surface of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 mounted on the bottom 122-1 of the first reflective cup 122. That is, the depth H2 of the first reflective cup 122 may be greater than the height a1 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 (H2>a1). For example, the depth H2 of the first reflective cup 122 may be greater than the height a1 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and may be less than twice the height a1 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 (a1<H2<2a1). The description of the first reflective cup 122 shown in FIG. 22B may be identically applied to the second reflective cup 124.

FIG. 22C is a view illustrating a depth H3 of the first reflective cup in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 22C, the upper surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 may be lower than the upper surface of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 mounted on the bottom 122-1 of the first reflective cup 122. The depth H3 of the first reflective cup 122 may be less than the height a1 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 (H3<a1).

For example, the depth H3 of the first reflective cup 122 may be less than the height a1 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and may be greater than half the height a1 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 (a1/2<H3<a1). The description of the first reflective cup 122 shown in FIG. 22C may be identically applied to the second reflective cup 124.

FIG. 10 illustrates serial connection between the light emitting devices in the semiconductor light emitting device package according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 10, first to fourth wires 1052 to 1058 are shown. The first wire 1052 may have one end bonded to the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 and the other end bonded to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132. The second wire 1054 may have one end bonded to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and the other end bonded to the first connection pad 126.

The third wire 1056 may have one end bonded to the first connection pad 126 and the other end bonded to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134. The fourth wire 1058 may have one end bonded to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 and the other end bonded to the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 134.

The light emitting devices 132 and 134 shown in FIG. 10 may be electrically connected in series by the first to fourth wires 1052 to 1058 bonded thereto. The serial connection between the light emitting devices 132 and 134 shown in FIG. 10 is achieved using, as a medium, the connection pad 126, which is independent of the light emitting devices 132 and 134. Accordingly, it may be possible to stably connect the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 in series, and thus to enhance the electrical reliability of the semiconductor light emitting device package.

FIG. 11 illustrates parallel connection between the light emitting devices of the semiconductor light emitting device package according to another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 11, first to fourth wires 1152 to 1158 are shown. The first wire 1152 may have one end bonded to the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 and the other end bonded to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132.

The second wire 1154 may have one end bonded to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and the other end bonded to the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124. The third wire 1156 may have one end bonded to the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 and the other end bonded to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134. The fourth wire 1158 may have one end bonded to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 and the other end bonded to the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 134. Thus, the light emitting devices 132 and 134 shown in FIG. 11 may be electrically connected in parallel by the first to fourth wires 1152 to 1158 bonded thereto.

FIG. 12 illustrates serial connection between the light emitting devices in the semiconductor light emitting device package according to another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 12, first to third wires 1252 to 1258 are shown. The first wire 1252 may have one end bonded to the top surface 122-3 of the first reflective cup 122 and the other end bonded to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132. The second wire 1254 may have one end bonded to the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 and the other end bonded to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134. The third wire 1258 may have one end bonded to the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 and the other end bonded to the top surface 124-3 of the second reflective cup 124.

In the case of FIG. 12, the light emitting devices 132 and 134 may be electrically connected in series by the first to third wires 1252 to 1258 bonded thereto. Different from the case of FIG. 10, the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 may be directly connected by the second wire 1254 without using the connection pad 126 as a medium.

The levels of the first reflective cup 122, second reflective cup 124, first semiconductor light emitting device 132, second semiconductor light emitting device 134, and zener diode 150 may be lower than the level of the top surface 106 of the body cavity 105.

The above-described embodiments are not associated with a single cup-type semiconductor light emitting device package, but are associated with a semiconductor light emitting device package structure in which the light emitting devices 132 and 134 are mounted in two separate reflective cups 122 and 124 in the body 110. Through such a structure, the light emitting devices 132 and 134 serving as heat sources are isolated from each other and heat generated by the light emitting devices 132 and 134 is blocked by the reflective cups 122 and 124, thereby preventing discoloration of the body 110 of the semiconductor light emitting device package 100 due to heat and thus extending the lifespan of the semiconductor light emitting device package 100. Further, the two separate reflective cups 122 and 124 prevent light interference between the light emitting devices 132 and 134.

FIG. 29 is a sectional view illustrating an exemplary embodiment of the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134 shown in FIG. 1. Referring to FIG. 29, the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 includes a substrate 20, a light emitting structure 30, a conductive layer 40, a first electrode 12, and a second electrode 14. The second semiconductor light emitting device 134 includes the substrate 20, the light emitting structure 30, the conductive layer 40, a third electrode 14, and a fourth electrode 18. The second semiconductor light emitting device 134 shown in FIG. 1 may have the same configuration as the first semiconductor light emitting device 132. The first and second electrodes 12 and 14 have different polarities, and the third and fourth electrodes 16 and 18 have different polarities.

The substrate 20 supports the light emitting structure 30. The substrate 20 may be one of a substrate made of a material having light transmittance, for example, a sapphire substrate, a silicon (Si) substrate, a zinc oxide (ZnO) substrate, and a nitride semiconductor substrate, or a template substrate laminated with at least one of GaN, InGaN, AlGaN, AlInGaN, SiC, GaP, InP, Ga₂O₃, and GaAs.

The light emitting structure 30 includes a first-conductivity type semiconductor layer 32, an active layer 33, and a second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34. The first-conductivity type semiconductor layer 32 may include, for example, an n-type semiconductor layer. The n-type semiconductor layer may be made of a semiconductor material having a formula of In_(x)Al_(y)Ga_(1-x-y)N (0≦x≦1, 0≦y≦1, and 0≦x+y≦1). For example, the semiconductor material may be selected from GaN, AlN, AlGaN, InGaN, InN, InAlGaN, or AlInN. The n-type semiconductor layer may be doped with an n-type dopant such as Si, Ge, Sn, Se, or Te.

The active layer 33 may be disposed over the first-conductivity type semiconductor layer 32. The active layer 33 may be made of a semiconductor material having a formula of In_(x)Al_(y)Ga_(1-x-y)N (0≦x≦1, 0≦y≦1, and 0≦x+y≦1). For example, the active layer 33 may have at least one of a quantum wire structure, a quantum dot structure, a single quantum well structure, and a multi-quantum well (MQW) structure.

The active layer 33 may generate light, using energy generated during recombination of electrons and holes provided from the first-conductivity type semiconductor layer 32 and second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34. The active layer 33 may generate light of various wavelengths. There is no limitation as to the range of the light generated from the active layer 33.

The second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34 is disposed over the active layer 33. The second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34 may be implemented by, for example, a p-type semiconductor layer. The p-type semiconductor layer may be made of a semiconductor material having a formula of In_(x)Al_(y)Ga_(1-x-y)N (0≦x≦1, 0≦y≦1, and 0≦x+y≦1). For example, the semiconductor material of the p-type semiconductor layer may be selected from GaN, AlN, AlGaN, InGaN, InN, InAlGaN, or AlInN. The p-type semiconductor layer may be doped with a p-type dopant such as Mg, Zn, Ca, Sr, or Ba.

In the light emitting structure 30, the second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34, active layer 33, and first-conductivity type semiconductor layer 32 may be partially mesa-etched to expose a portion of the first-conductivity type semiconductor layer 32.

The conductive layer 40 is disposed over the second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34. The conductive layer 40 may not only reduce full reflection, but also enhance the efficiency of extracting light emitted from the active layer 33 to the second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34 by virtue of excellent transmittance thereof. The conductive layer 40 may be made of a transparent oxide-based material exhibiting high transmissivity at wavelengths of emitted light. For example, the transparent oxide-based material may include indium tin oxide (ITO), tin oxide (TO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), indium tin zinc oxide (ITZO), or zinc oxide (ZnO). In another embodiment, the conductive layer 40 may be dispensed with.

The first electrode 12 or third electrode 16 may be disposed on the exposed portion of the first-conductivity type semiconductor layer 32. The second electrode 14 or fourth electrode 18 may be disposed on the second-conductivity type semiconductor layer 34 or conductive layer 40. The first electrode 12 and third electrode 16 may be n-type electrodes, whereas the second electrode 14 and fourth electrode 18 may be p-type electrodes. The first to fourth electrodes 12, 14, 16, and 18 may be made of a metal material, for example, at least one metal material selected from Ti, Al, Al alloy, In, Ta, Pd, Co, Ni, Si, Ge, Ag, Ag alloy, Au, Hf, Pt, Ru, Au, and alloys thereof. Each of the first to fourth electrodes 12, 14, 16, and 18 may have a single-layer structure or multi-layer structure. Referring to FIGS. 10 to 12, the first to fourth electrodes 12 to 18 are illustrated.

Referring to FIG. 23, the barrier wall 680 is disposed on a portion of the bottom 103 of the cavity 105 interposed between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124. The barrier wall 680 functions to prevent light emitted from the semiconductor light emitting device 132 and light emitted from the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 from interfering with each other.

The height of the barrier wall 680, namely, H4, may be greater than the heights of the wires 152 to 158 bonded to the first and second light emitting devices 122 and 124 while being less than the height of the side surfaces 102 of the cavity 105. The barrier wall 680 may be made of the same material as the body 110, and may be integral with the bottom 103 of the cavity 105, even though it is not limited thereto.

The barrier wall 680 is not disposed on the remaining portion of the bottom 103 of the cavity 105, which is interposed between the first reflective cup 122 and the first connection pad 126, between the first reflective cup 122 and the second connection pad 128, between the second reflective cup 124 and the first connection pad 126, and between the second reflective cup 124 and the second connection pad 128.

FIG. 25 illustrates a semiconductor light emitting device package 100-2 according to another embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 25, the same reference numerals as those of FIG. 1 designate the same constituent elements as those of FIG. 1. Overlapping content will be omitted or more briefly described. Connections of wires 1252, 1254, and 1258 shown in FIG. 25 represent serial connections shown in FIG. 12.

Referring to FIGS. 12 and 25, the semiconductor light emitting device package 100-2 includes a body 110, a first reflective cup 122, a second reflective cup 124, a first connection pad 126, a second connection pad 128, a first semiconductor light emitting device 132, a second semiconductor light emitting device 134, a zener diode 150, wires 1252, 1254, and 1258, and a barrier wall 680-1.

The barrier wall 680-1 has a similar shape to the barrier wall 680 shown in FIG. 23. However, the barrier wall 680-1 has a first groove 682. The first groove 682 is recessed from an upper surface of the barrier wall 680-1. The first groove 682 is opened at opposite sides of the barrier wall 680-1. For example, the first groove 682 may be upwardly opened while being opened toward the first and second reflective cups 124. The first groove 682 may be aligned with the second electrode 14 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 132 mounted in the first reflective cup 122 and the first electrode 16 of the second semiconductor light emitting device 134 mounted in the second reflective cup 124.

The first wire 1252 electrically connects the first reflective cup 122 and the first electrode 12 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 122. The third wire 1258 electrically connects the second reflective cup 124 and the second electrode 18 of the second semiconductor light emitting device 124.

The second wire 1254 electrically connects the second electrode 14 of the first semiconductor light emitting device 122 and the third electrode 16 of the second semiconductor light emitting device 124. The second wire 1254 may connect the second electrode 14 and third electrode 16 via the groove 632. That is, a portion of the second wire 1254 may be disposed in the first groove 682.

When the first and second light emitting devices 122 and 124 shown in FIG. 23 are connected in series, the wires should be disposed above the barrier wall 680. For this reason, the wires may be readily broken.

In the case of FIG. 25, however, it may be possible to dispose the second wire 1254 at a lower level than the barrier wall 680-1 because the barrier wall 680-1 is provided with the first groove 682 allowing the second wire 1254 to extend therethrough. Thus, in this embodiment, it may be possible to prevent the second wire 1254, which directly connects the first and second light emitting devices 132 and 134, from being readily broken.

FIG. 26 illustrates a semiconductor light emitting device package 100-3 according to another embodiment of the present invention.

In FIGS. 26 and 27, the same reference numerals as those of FIG. 1 designate the same constituent elements as those of FIG. 1. Overlapping content will be omitted or more briefly described.

Referring to FIGS. 26 and 27, the semiconductor light emitting device package 100-3 includes a body 110, a first reflective cup 122, a second reflective cup 124, a first connection pad 126, a second connection pad 128, a first semiconductor light emitting device 132, a second semiconductor light emitting device 134, a zener diode 150, wires 151 to 159, and a barrier wall 690.

The barrier wall 690 is disposed on portions of the bottom 103 of the cavity 105, which are interposed between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124, between the first reflective cup 122 and the first connection pad 126, between the first reflective cup 122 and the second connection pad 128, between the second reflective cup 124 and the first connection pad 126, and between the second reflective cup 124 and the second connection pad 128, respectively. The barrier wall 690 may have the same height as the barrier wall 680 shown in FIG. 23.

The barrier wall 690 has a second groove 692, through which the second wire 154 extends, and a third groove 694, through which the third wire 156 extends. The second groove 692 is provided at a portion of the barrier wall 690 disposed between the first reflective cup 122 and the first connection pad 126. The third groove 694 is provided at another portion of the barrier wall 690 disposed between the second reflective cup 124 and the first connection pad 126. The fifth wire 159, which electrically connects the first reflective cup 122 and the zener diode 150, may be disposed over the barrier wall 690.

FIG. 28 illustrates a semiconductor light emitting device package 100-4 according to another embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 28, the same reference numerals as those of FIG. 1 designate the same constituent elements as those of FIG. 1. Overlapping content will be omitted or more briefly described.

Referring to FIG. 28, a barrier wall 690-1 is illustrated. The barrier wall 690-1 is disposed on portions of the bottom 103 of the cavity 105, which are interposed between the first and second reflective cups 122 and 124, between the first reflective cup 122 and the first connection pad 126, between the first reflective cup 122 and the second connection pad 128, and between the second reflective cup 124 and the first connection pad 126, respectively.

The barrier wall 690-1 has a second groove 692, through which the second wire 154 extends, and a third groove 694, through which the third wire 156 extends. The second groove 692 is provided at a portion of the barrier wall 690-1 disposed between the first reflective cup 122 and the first connection pad 126. The third groove 694 is provided at another portion of the barrier wall 690-1 disposed between the second reflective cup 124 and the first connection pad 126. The fifth wire 159 electrically connects the first reflective cup 122 and the zener diode 150.

In the embodiment of FIG. 26, the fifth wire 159 may be readily broken because it is disposed over the barrier wall 690. In the case of FIG. 28, however, it may be possible to dispose the fifth wire 159, which connects the first reflective cup 122 and the zener diode 150, at a lower level than the barrier wall 690-1 because the barrier wall 690-1 is not disposed between the first reflective cup 122 and the second connection pad 128 and between the second reflective cup 124 and the second connection pad 128. Thus, it may be possible to prevent the fifth wire 159 from being readily broken in that the level at which the fifth wire 159 is disposed can be lowered.
